Government regulators are increasingly trying to make a difference by introducing “green” industrial standards. The EU’s Restriction on Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive, for one, calls for reduction in the use of lead and five other chemicals. RoHS went into effect in 2006; however, Liberty Wire & Cable—a provider of cable products and connectors—has been voluntarily developing compliant products for several years. More than 90% of the company’s approximately 6000 products are already RoHS compliant. The RoHS directive was adopted by the European Union in 2003 and became effective in 2006.
It restricts the use of lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, two polybrominated biphenyls, and polybrominated diphenyl ether in electronic and electrical equipment. Other countries are implementing or considering the RoHS directive, and California already recognizes portions of it. |
